About
discretisedfield is a Python package that provides:
-
Creation of finite difference meshes
-
Creation, analysis, and plotting of finite difference fields
-
Reading and writing of different file types, such as
.ovfand.vtk
It is available on all major operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Linux) and requires Python 3.5 or higher.
Installation
We recommend installing discretisedfield by using either of the pip or conda package managers.
Python requirements
Before installing discretisedfield via pip, please make sure you have Python 3.5 or higher on your system. You can check that by running
python3 --version
If you are on Linux, it is likely that you already have Python installed. However, on MacOS and Windows, this is usually not the case. If you do not have Python 3.5 or higher on your machine, we strongly recommend installing the Anaconda Python distribution. Download Anaconda for your operating system and follow instructions on the download page. Further information about installing Anaconda can be found here.
pip
After installing Anaconda on MacOS or Windows, pip will also be installed. However, on Linux, if you do not already have pip, you can install it with
sudo apt install python3-pip
To install the discretisedfield version currently in the Python Package Index repository PyPI on all operating systems run:
python3 -m pip install discretisedfield
conda
discretisedfield is installed using conda by running
conda install --channel conda-forge discretisedfield
For further information on the conda package, dependency, and environment management, please have a look at its documentation.
Updating
If you used pip to install discretisedfield, you can update to the latest released version in PyPI by running
python3 -m pip install --upgrade discretisedfield
On the other hand, if you used conda for installation, update discretisedfield with
conda upgrade discretisedfield
